"My eyes look for you in the midst of a crowd
But shy away when you are right in front"
I spent my extra recess walking around school just to find you
(I was a lazy person and I still am)

I smiled
(On the inside)
I stood awkwardly near a trash can, pretending to throw rubbish from my pocket
(I forgot how to walk)
Your group of friends stopped and asked me a question I can't remember now
(I wish my voice and smart choices of words left a good impression on you)
My eyes were focused on your friend but I could catch you nodding at me
(Is it wrong if I saw your nod as a 'yes, I like you too')
I avoided your eye contact
(I really like your eyes)
Then, you guys left
(Please stay)
I turned around and saw your figure getting smaller
(Counting every second and stopped at 9 before you completely vanished)
"Look back" I shouted
(In my mind)
All these years I acted cold and distant,
Oh, you must've thought I really, really hate you
(I really, really love you)
